WHEAT-To-day being a holiday there is no
session of the Produce Exchange, and business
is generally suspended. The market closed yes
terday at steady and strong prices, without any
movement of magnitude. Exporters are wiling
but most holders are disposed to keep back stock
IN hope of better prices As a consequence, the
volume of offerings is notably limited.
BAkLEY-The market is not active in char
acter. Prices are somewhat more settled, and
dealers do not look for any very marked tluctu-
atoms for Il week at least Feed that can be
classed as No. grade is quotable at sl@l 0212 q
ell, and jobbing business is transacted at this
range. In Brewing there is scarcely any move
ment, though offerings are somewhat more lib
eral. MaltsterS do not care to stack up much
before the LIST of March, as by delay the payment
of taxes is avoided. The quotable range for
brewing is 81 10@l Is q etl.

however, a fair jobbing trade in progress. Light
stocks of white and extra white give strength to
prices Tor these descriptions With dark grades
the market is literally supplied. with prices
rather in favor of buyers. We quote : New
Comb, 12@14e p ID for choice and case for
common; new bright extracted 415Q15c.
BUTTER-The bad condition of the roads
during the late rains detained more or less But
ter at diaries, thus giving dealers opportunity
to clean up stocks Receipts, however, will
become larger now that fair weather prevails.
Further shipments East are not considered
likely, as prices ruling in those distant N irkets
Will not Justify the sending OF product hence.
Thus possible avenue for disposal of surplus
is closed. Fancy, 2)c; good to choice, l7e C;
fair, li9l6c; mixed lots, 12t9lSc; picked roll,

good. and I0912c for poor: Eastern, l0Gi4c y b.
CHEESE-Is coming in more freely, and the
market is better supplied than in some time.
Prices are lower and the tendency is still down
wards. Quotable at 16@el61%c = 10 for choice,
and III 3Go15c for fair to good quality.
EGGS-Supplies are larger than the demand,
and the market shows pronounced declining
tendency. The fact that Eastern consignments
are on the way. and offered to arrive at lSa19c
2 dozen, helps to further weaken the situation.
At this season of the year the Eastern article
compares fayorably with home product, and
prices in distant markets govern to some extent
the quotations for California stock Consign-
ments direct from the hennery might at the
moment sell by the single box at 2Se, but Gus
tom at this figure is limited. Good qualities are
freely offered at 21@22c, while stock that wss
pressed on the market is said to have sold as low
as zoe Z dozen.
PoULTRI-The Turkey market is democrat
lied, owing to excessive supply. Both live and
ed, and buyers have their own way in regard to
prices. Were the weather not so cold. the sit
uation weuld be even verse for sellers. We
quote as follows; Live Turkeys-5obblers, 1870
